Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a remote control system for a domestic appliance.
  • a domestic appliance should be brought into a safe state.
  • an input device of a user interface is deactivated, so that the domestic appliance cannot be operated by unauthorised persons.
  • an oven door of a cooking oven is locked, so that the oven door cannot be opened by children.
  • the safe state of the domestic appliance may be activated or deactivated by a remote control system.
  • the object is achieved by the remote control system for a domestic appliance according to claim 1.
  • a remote control system for at least one domestic appliance is provided, wherein:
  • the main idea of the present invention is the application software which is able to check one or more safety states of the domestic appliance.
  • the user is able to check the safety state from a distance and gets certainty about the current state of the domestic appliance in absentia.
  • the remote control device may be a smartphone, a tablet, a notebook or a laptop.
  • the remote control device may be connected or connectable to the domestic appliance via the internet or a data cloud, if said remote control device is far away from the domestic appliance.
  • the remote control device may be connected or connectable to the domestic appliance via a wireless local area network (WLAN) or a local area network (LAN), if said remote control device is inside or close to a building, in which the domestic appliance is arranged.
  • WLAN wireless local area network
  • LAN local area network
  • the domestic appliance may be connected or connectable to a router via a wireless local area network (WLAN) or a local area network (LAN).
  • WLAN wireless local area network
  • LAN local area network
  • At least one identifier of the domestic appliance is registered in the application software. This avoids that unauthorised persons and/or foreign remote control devices have access to the domestic appliance.
  • the safety state of the domestic appliance includes at least one deactivated user interface of said domestic appliance.
  • the deactivated user interface avoids that unauthorised persons can operate the domestic appliance.
  • the safety state of the domestic appliance may include at least one locked door of said domestic appliance. In this case, the door cannot be opened by unauthorised persons.
  • the safety state of the domestic appliance can be activated or deactivated by the remote control device.
  • adjustments for the user interface of the domestic appliance may be stored in the remote control device by the application software, wherein the adjustments can be manually or automatically activated again on said user interface of the domestic appliance.
  • the adjustments for the user interface of the domestic appliance may be automatically activated again at a predetermined instant of time.
  • features and main characteristics of the domestic appliance are registered in the remote control device by the application software.
  • an individual product number of the domestic appliance is registered in the remote control device by the application software.
  • the remote control device may provide a status report of the domestic appliance, wherein a chronological sequence of states of the domestic appliance is displayed on said remote control device.
  • the application software may be protected by a password.
  • FIG 1 illustrates a schematic view of a remote control system for a domestic appliance according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • the remote control system comprises a remote control device 10, at least one domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 and an internet connection 16.
  • the domestic appliances are a cooking oven 12 and a washing machine 14.
  • the remote control system is suitable for arbitrary domestic appliances connectable to the remote control device 10.
  • the remote control device 10 is a mobile remote control device.
  • the remote control device 10 is a smartphone, a tablet, a notebook or a laptop.
  • the domestic appliances 12 and 14 are arranged inside a building 18.
  • the domestic appliances 12 and 14 are connected to a router via a local area network (LAN) or a wireless local area network (WLAN).
  • the remote control device 10 is connected or connectable to the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 via the internet 16 and/or a data cloud 16, if said remote control device 10 is far away from the building 18.
  • the remote control device 10 is connected or connectable to the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 via a router, if said remote control device 10 is located inside or close to the building 18. In the latter case, the remote control device 10 is connected or connectable to router via the local area network (LAN) or the wireless local area network (WLAN).
  • LAN local area network
  • WLAN wireless local area network
  • An application software is installed on said remote control device 10. Said application software is provided for checking a state of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14. In particular, the application software is provided for checking if a safety state of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 is activated or deactivated.
  • an activated safety state is a locked oven door of the cooking oven 12 or a locked porthole of the washing machine 14, so that the oven door or porthole, respectively, cannot be opened by unauthorised persons.
  • Another activated safety state is a deactivated user interface of the cooking oven 12 or of the washing machine 14, so that the user interface cannot be operated by unauthorised persons.
  • the features and main characteristics of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 are registered in the application software.
  • at least one identifier of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 is registered in the application software. Only registered users have access to the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14. The registration may be performed during an onboarding procedure. The personal user and a password for access to the private router must be known.
  • the individual product number of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 is registered in the application software. This ensures that the domestic appliance cannot be checked by a foreign remote control device. Moreover, the safety state of the domestic appliance cannot be manipulated by the foreign remote control device or any other device.
  • the application software on the remote control device 10 is protected by a password.
  • the remote control device 10 is able to deactivate the user interface of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 from a distance. If the user has forgotten to deactivate the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 and has left the building 18, then it is possible to deactivate said domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 by the remote control device 10 from a distance. No unauthorised person is able to activate and use the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14. The user interface of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 does not respond to any operation.
  • the remote control device 10 is able to provide a status report of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14. For example, the chronological sequence of the states of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 may be displayed on the remote control device 10.
  • adjustments for the user interface of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14 may be stored in the data cloud 16 by the application software activated again at a predetermined instant of time.
  • the remote control device 10 is notified about the status of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14.
  • the application software allows that the environment of the user becomes safer.
  • the application software allows a reliable control of the current state of the domestic appliance 12 and/or 14.
